Make a holiday home, farm house or apartment in Montepulciano, Italy your home away from home

Situated in Italy’s popular Tuscany region, the town of Montepulciano is set on a hilltop with beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. This southern Tuscany town is about 115 miles north of Rome and 43 miles south east of Siena and is best known as a high class wine and food producing area. Montepulciano is most popular with couples, and a variety of holiday accommodation includes apartments and town homes, though many of the beautifully converted farmhouses in the area would also make this a great destination for families too.

Things to do on holiday in Montepulciano, Italy

The town and ‘comune’ is most famous for Montepulciano wine, though it is also a famous producer of some wonderful Italian foods too, making this an excellent gastro holiday destination! Pork, cheese, honey and lentils, as well as a variation on spaghetti pasta, are the region’s specialties, and you can try these along with some Montepulciano wine in some of the town’s restaurants.

Apart from the wine and food, Montepulciano has some interesting attractions too. The car-free city centre is great for strolling around, and from the Clock Tower of the Palazzo Comunale there are some wonderful views over the town and beyond. Piazza Grande is one of the town’s major squares where the medieval Palazzo Comunale and Palazzo de Nobili-Tarugi add to the impressive architecture. The Civic Museum and San Biagio Church are also popular, but wine lovers will be most interested in the numerous opportunities for tasting some of the Montepulciano wine, or taking a tour of the nearby vineyards and wineries.

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Le Caggiole and would recommend it to anyone intending to visit this part of Italy. Situated near the beautiful hilltop town of Montepulciano the Villa itself was perfect for our group of 8 and the photos do not do justice to the beauty of the views and the Villa itself. The hosts, Francesca and Jim, were so gracious and provided some great recommendations and we would suggest that anyone who stays at the villa ask Francesca to arrange for a local cook to prepare and cook food for them for the evening, which was a real highlight. The location was perfect for us to explore this part of Tuscany, which includes the wonderful towns of Montepulciano, Montalcino and nearby Siena. Grazie Francesca and Jim. We cannot wait to visit again.

The appartment was fabulous. Quiet, a beautiful garden, clean and very well equipped. Roberta was an excellent host and couldn't have been more helpful. The property is in a small village with local amenities and close to Montepulciano and other fabulous sights. We would dfinitely go back!
